Making It Your Own

Bibles can be personalized in several ways. Some options, such as having a name imprinted on the front cover or making a homemade Bible case, not only are useful for personal needs but make fantastic gifts. Other Bible personalizing speaks volumes about a Bible student. Select favorite verses or topics and mark them. Write scripture references beside favorite verses. For instance, a student might select one of the Great Commission passages such as the one in Matthew 28:18-20 and write the words "Acts 2:38" next to the passage to show the passages are linked. Bible marking and linking of passages help serious students locate important topics. Writing favorite verses in the front of your Bible may help you remember the things that have most influenced your life.
